Dear Editor, I am writing to you as a result of reading about PiggyBankKids 'Big Night In' event to raise funds for the charity. This is a wonderful idea to combine fun, socialising and fund-raising all in the one evening. On receiving my pack of ideas, I have decided to hold a party based on a 'Titanic' theme. All my guests must arrive dressed in the fashions of that era. Entertainment will include quizzes, raffles and competitions. So here's to a wonderful evening. D.A. Rosyth

Who said the Scottish Parliament was full of rubbish? I could not resist taking the photo I have sent you regarding all the boxes stacked up against the window in the new parliament bulding. The photograph was taken from the pavement at the foot of the Cannongate on the day the Parliament opened so I feel there is an excuse for the breach of Health and Safety rules, afterall the building was over budget over its' completion date and over optimistic about being ready for the Queens' visit. Nevermind the event was executed with precision and a credit to the organisers.
Mr McFinnie, Scotland
